Freakishly realistic telemarketing robots are denying they're robots

This is how it starts, people. First we get our chatbots to sound and
act realistic � and then we get them to convince everyone they're
actually human. Listen to this crazy conversation between Time's
Michael Scherer and a telemarketing robot who refuses to admit her
true artificial nature.

**An update to this story can be found here**

Recently, Time Washington Bureau Chief Michael Scherer received a
phone call from an apparently bright and engaging woman asking him if
he wanted a deal on his health insurance. But he soon got the feeling
something wasn't quite right.

After asking the telemarketer point blank if she was a real person or
a computer-operated robot, she chuckled charmingly and insisted she
was real. Looking to press the issue, Scherer asked her a series of
questions, which she promptly failed. Such as, "What vegetable is
found in tomato soup?" To which she responded by saying she didn't
understand the question. When asked what day of the week it was
yesterday, she complained of a bad connection (ah, the oldest trick in
the book).

Here, listen for yourself:
